You have been an avid reader of this blo...@ B.M.A.<br /><br />You have been an avid reader of this blog, and have frequently let your comments knowing that your sentiments were not necessarily shared by all the authors of the blog. During this time, we responded to your comments as best as we could in the hope of keeping the dialogue alive. After all this time, I am really disappointed to see you accuse this author of not stating the facts. When I stated that dozens Green sympathizers have been killed, the statement was not an opinion, but a fact. I do not shy away from expressing my opinions on any number of subjects, but I will not confuse opinion with facts. You among all readers should know better.<br /><br />If the killing of dozen protesters is unacceptable to you, as it comes across your comment, then instead of denying facts probably it’s best for you to reconsider your all-out support for the current regime in power. There is a fine line between being a supporter and being an apologist. You want to stay at the correct side. <br /><br />Also, please do not confuse your positive sentiments toward Iran and the Iranian people with those toward the current rulers. Iran has been standing for nearly 3,000 years, and will be here for thousands of years to come. During this long period, a lot of governments and regimes have come and gone. The latest is the Islamic Republic. One thing can be said for sure and scientifically: this one will also go and a new one will replace it. It is not a matter of if but when. That’s what history proves. So keep your positive sentiments toward Iran, governments come and go.Nader Uskowihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02808543185109048956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5169130203475264933.post-28743284873474259902012-02-13T05:28:55.298-05:002012-02-13T05:28:55.298-05:00Anon 2:03, 3:54 PM

What would surprise me is if you would use the same rationale to justify the crimes by the Bahraini rulers against their people.

No amount of BS lawyerly excuses can make his killing OK. <br />Even if the western countries were to kill thousands of demonstrators in the same fashion, which they don&#39;t, the Islamic republic is still responsible for violating the most basic of human rights when they kill the Iranian &quot;illegal&quot; demonstrators.Jabbar Fazeli, MDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15665812073292288344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5169130203475264933.post-4299261140323930212012-02-12T16:29:28.038-05:002012-02-12T16:29:28.038-05:00&quot;It&#39;s a question of law (unlawful assembl...<i>&quot;It&#39;s a question of law (unlawful assembly), restoration and sustaining of public order and law enforcement technique.&quot;</i><br /><br />Mark any form of opposition can be deemed by the regime as unlawful since it has a supreme and totalitarian hand over the Iranian people.

However, the government has not explained why it needed to put the opposition leaders under house arrest if the vast majority of citizens supported the government as claimed.&quot;-Nader<br /><br />This statement is false. Many times the government has explained that a sedition effort was made following the election. Furthermore, It has addressed every one of Mousavi&#39;s contentions following the election. See here:<br /><br />http://brillwebsite.com/writings/iran2009election.html<br /><br />Why does there need to be security for such occasions? How about the many riots that have taken place, for starters? the worst of which was during a previous Ashura. <br /><br />Support for the government? Apply that contention to the OWS protests here in the US. There have been thousands of arrests, teargas, flash grenades, baton strikes. You could say the same thing here: if the government of the U.S. is supported, why do they have to resort to this? <br /><br />It&#39;s all about order, Nader, whether you&#39;re talking about the Islamic Republic of Iran or the United States of America.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5169130203475264933.post-5868054262152245622012-02-12T13:48:13.255-05:002012-02-12T13:48:13.255-05:00The Regime has nothing to worry about.
